Adding Custom Line Patterns to Document Stencil

[Popovidchenko]

Hi.
How can I programmatically copy master from my stencil to the Document
Stencil?

Hi,

Instead of dropping the master to a page, you drop it to a document. Then it
goes to the document's internal "document stencil".

For example:

Dim mst as Visio.Master, mstNew as Visio.Master
Set mst = doc1.Masters("Some Shape")

set mstNew = doc2.Drop( mst, 0, 0 )

Thanks, Chris.
But is there any method without Drop function?

What's wrong with the Drop method? That's how you add masters?

Other than that...write a Visio xml file, or save a copy of your drawing and
delete the masters you don't want. I don't really understand why you don't
want to use Drop???

Have you tried adding the custom line pattern to a shape and copying the
shape to a new drawing?
